Politics PA

The website focuses on news related to politics and campaigns in Pennsylvania, covering everything from state legislative matters to federal elections. The editorial team occasionally produces special features, such as the weekly "Up & Down" scorecard and unique lists like "Harrisburg's Smartest Staffers" and "Best Dressed Lobbyist." PoliticsPa.com encourages anonymous tips from the public; notably, in 2012, it was the first to disclose Tom Smith's challenge to Bob Casey in the U.S. Senate race and reported Governor Tom Corbett's endorsement of Steve Welch in that contest. Additionally, in 2004, it was the first to announce that Senator Arlen Specter would be running against Pat Toomey in the Republican primary, as well as Joe Hoeffel's bid for the Democratic nomination that same year. The website also occasionally features original documents, including political ads for television and radio, campaign flyers, and notable letters that spark discussion.
